I am using the following code to launch a command on another machine:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/rsh -n $Host_Name "cat asdf.txt &"
And I am trying to obtain the PID of the cat command by using the following:
/usr/bin/rsh -n $Host_Name pid="$!"
But when I echo $pid, it is just blank. What am I doing incorrectly? Is there an easier way of obtaining the PID of the last command that was executed on a different machine?
Thanks
